Thank you for not going with 22" wagon wheels!

21's are the perfect size for this car

Those wheels are MEAN!! Brabus knows how to make a set of tough looking kicks but damn! Love the design, color and the whole package. I don't even want to venture a guess as to what this wheel/tire package costs, knowing Brabus you could likely buy a used C32 for somewhere around the same haha. I think if I curbed these I'd have a freakin heartattack! Enjoy, great pick!

No ELM.....I was considering but I like the look as-is and the ride is nice. Not as smooth as the stock 20's but much better than 22's with 25 series rubber. I had 22" HRE 943 on a flying spur and the ride was much more harsh.

Hey Nice,

I see you've had both a Cl65 and a bentley...

Can you tell me if the MB is as good or better than the Bentley in your experience...

Thanks
FYI - I'm looking at the 2011 cl 63 once it comes out

I would say they are totally different. MB is actually smoother (could be the 21's vs. the 22's). MB is more aggressive and bentley is "subtle". I like the rear wheel drive.....tons of fun with the esp off but it will spin on you very easily. If you want speed & more technology, go with the MB. If you want more classy looks and less performance, bentley might be a better fit.

Looks great. Maybe see if the dealer will lower your car via STAR? That's how mine was lowered. But even if you keep the ride height stock, Brabus + CL65 = Win.
